Before releasing a sneak peek of their Christmas card, The Duchess of Cornwall had invited special guests from the Helen & Douglas House Hospice for Children and Young Adults to decorate Clarence House's Christmas tree. It is said to be a Christmas tradition for one of the Welsh Guards to help Camilla and her guests with this special task.
One of the guests named Alice can be seen on the photo above as she tries on a hat from one of the Welsh guards. The Helen & Douglas House Hospice for Children and Young Adults is a charity hospice located in Oxford, England. It helps life-limited children and young adults, as well as their families by giving them respite, end-of-life and bereavement care.
As for His Royal Highness (HRH) The Prince of Wales, he was recently in London to attend an Advent reception hosted by Cardinal Vincent Nichols, Archbishop of Westminster. Prince Charles met with Christians in the Middle East as well as various representatives of Christian aid charities. He also offered special prayers for those who are suffering and are persecuted for their faith.
Prince Charles and Camilla's 2015 Christmas card has a more relaxed photo of the two, compared to their official 2014 card for the holidays. In their previous Christmas card, they chose a photo of them clapping proudly during the opening ceremony of Prince Harry's Invictus Games. These games allow servicemen and women who have been wounded and injured to still compete against each other, much like the Paralympics. Click here to see the said photo from HRH's official website.
